Oxidative Coupling as a Biomimetic Approach to the Synthesis of Scytonemin

[Image: see text] The first total synthesis of the dimeric alkaloid pigment scytonemin is described. The key transformations in its synthesis from 3-indole acetic acid are a Heck carbocyclization and a Suzuki–Miyaura cross-coupling, orchestrated in a stereospecific tandem fashion, followed by a bios...

description [Image: see text] The first total synthesis of the dimeric alkaloid pigment scytonemin is described. The key transformations in its synthesis from 3-indole acetic acid are a Heck carbocyclization and a Suzuki–Miyaura cross-coupling, orchestrated in a stereospecific tandem fashion, followed by a biosynthetically inspired oxidative dimerization. The tandem sequence generates a tetracyclic (E)-3-(arylidene)-3,4-dihydrocyclopenta[b]indol-2(1H)-one that is subsequently dimerized into the unique homodimeric core structure of scytonemin.
